Femap – shorten validation time with simulation
Simcenter™ Femap™
Tackle complex product design challenges with advanced finite element modeling and analysis software. Verify and optimize your design.
In today’s fast-paced market, Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) is essential for companies looking to develop high-performing, reliable, and cost-effective products. By integrating CAE into your product development process, you can accelerate innovation, reduce costs, and optimize designs before production even begins.
Why add CAE to your design process?
Reduce cost and time-to-market
- Faster Development Cycles – Reduce physical prototyping and validate designs faster through virtual simulations.
- Fast return on investment – shortens overall time from concept to design to validation and production
- Identify and fix potential issueas early in the design process
- Optimize your design before manufacturing
- Better decision-making – gain data-driven insights into product behaviour
- Ensure meeting industry standards
Optimize the design
- Reduce weight and material (10 – 30% typical)
- Evaluate cheaper materials and different designs
- Foster innovation

- Solver independent – supports all major commercial solvers
- High-level Nastran integration supporting advanced analysis types
- Highly customizable with the API
- Powerful integration platform for third-party solution extensions
Pre / postprocessing
With advanced tools for CAE geometry editing, comprehensive meshing, FE assembly management, and multi-solver support, you can seamlessly transform multi-CAD data into a ready-to-run analysis model. Accelerate your workflow with rapid post-processing and reporting, so you can focus on making informed engineering decisions faster.
Structual analysis
Understand how complex components, products, and systems react under stress or vibration with powerful structural analysis tools that go beyond linear-static analyses. Simcenter Femap provides the structural analysis software you need to simulate a wide range of applications, all within a single user environment.
Thermal analysis
Understand the thermal characteristics of your products with comprehensive, best-in-class thermal simulation capabilities that enable you to tailor your thermal management solution for optimal performance.
